Re: (erielack) E S'burg Tower

[Robert Stafford <erielack1_@_yahoo.com>]

I stand corrected to 1974. Only off one year on a 30
year old memory of the wooden planks the B&B was using
to stand on while they paint the tower. I was thinking
it was after I went to work for the EWIB, I did not
realize that I was still agent at Bangor when it was
painted. It was a long time ago.
